Agen Posted November 22, 2001 Share Posted November 22, 2001 Vagabond's idea woud be great but people would be disappointed because osme peole might onyl isgn up after.... but putting our names in a forum that's only on for 24 hours seems cool but i mightb e on holiday so someone please sign my name up if i'm gone. Also Stomrhammer's idea about utting in yor forum name is great and it could give us extra (stars?) force powers or something cool... but we'd have to put in pass... and only first 700 (or a bit over) get it....... that'd be cool or we could put our names in a forum or osmrhing......... but i think what aristole meant was osmeinfo or osmething anyway theyr'e really cool ideas.

Kumba Posted November 22, 2001 Share Posted November 22, 2001 How bout a Massassi temple where the statues inside are US! MRJ Can map it, that drunkard mofo. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest JediKnight_114[b] Posted November 22, 2001 Share Posted November 22, 2001 how bout only people with 50 or more post can sign up. That would distinguish the regulars for the most part. And how bout a wall in the game, like on Coruscant or something, honoring all the fallen comrades of the New Republic. All the names of course, would be ours. That, way, it isn't a huge project like statues, it's something discreet, and it's a huge thank you. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest digl Posted November 22, 2001 Share Posted November 22, 2001 I still don't think we should ask for screenshots, gameplay movies or even a demo. We'll get all of those sonner or later anyway, and they'll lose their significance once the game has been released. I agree Vagabond`s idea is cool, but like Terminator says only a few could appear. Im still voting for a secret room with names or maybe the names in the credits The problem would be choosing the names Maybe if the idea is approved both by us and by LEC, you should ask them how many names they allow, and based on that the selection is made based on antiquity and number of posts. I dont mean to include only people with lots of posts, but to exlucde old members with no posts and include newest members who do participate in the forums What do you think? and you raven and lec guys? I know you are reading this! you said youd have a more active participation in the forums now so come here and post something! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Agen Posted November 22, 2001 Share Posted November 22, 2001 Remember they could simply use a font and print it on a map because i'm sure jkii.net has a list of all the forum members and this is simply cop and paste and then they could jsut put it in a mat (if that's what they're calling them in jk2) and put in a secret area... and there for all to see. I just thought of this and this way then all the forum members ever can be on it... dismiss people who haven't posted in over 2 months.... It could be a simpe wall with all our names.. What abotu it evey1? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wardz Posted November 22, 2001 Share Posted November 22, 2001 I think some people are getting a little carried away. We all want a team effort and by putting individuals' name on a wall or credits (although it would be nice to see my name) is NOT a team effort. Some people will be left out, some people who don't deserve it will get theirs put on. So, I think we should be happy with thank everyone at jkii.net. This is supposed to be a token gesture from LEC - not making out as though we are partners with them and Raven. I hope you understand what I am saying wardz Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Agen Posted November 22, 2001 Share Posted November 22, 2001 good point................ arie (can i call u arie?) said things liek questionss and prizes not to be in the credits or part of it... but yet the glactic plumber man and a demo are good ideas if not the wall writing then i chosoe demo!

Alan1587246518 Posted November 22, 2001 Share Posted November 22, 2001 Well, this is my 33rd post, but I'm a regular of this forum -- I just don't post as often as some. So, out of both selfishness and common sense, I think the said banner with JK2.net on it is the most general mention of JK faithfuls and yet secluded to this forum -- and therefore the best idea. Any JK fan should be reistered here, after all... [ November 22, 2001: Message edited by: Hitman ] Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ed_silvergun Posted November 23, 2001 Share Posted November 23, 2001 I hear you, Wardz, about excluding some people, but I do maintain that whatever we do, someone will complain that a) it wasn't what they wanted, b) their name was missed off, c) they weren't consulted, d) the saber's the wrong colour, e) the troopers' toe-caps are the wrong size and f) they never wanted the bloody game anyway. These people are just angry at the world because they're not getting enough. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Agen Posted November 23, 2001 Share Posted November 23, 2001 it's IMPOSSIBLE to keep eveyone happy as it's impossible. I was thinking what about all the skins having OFFICIAL JK2.NET MEMBER on back and u have to put in pass to get it.... and then u'd be recognised but i recall it was a treat info question screens or whatever not really cookies in-game Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kumba Posted November 23, 2001 Share Posted November 23, 2001 Outrage did this really cool thing with Descent 3. They let people send in pictures of themselves (like 64x64 i think) and whenever that person talked in the game they're little picture would appear. That could be cool in Jk2.

Lion Heart Posted November 23, 2001 Share Posted November 23, 2001 Holiday gift hmmm.... Another couple ideas... 1. The official FAQs on the LEC site being updated more often / another JK2 chat event that would come up sooner then scheduled. 2. More interation with LEC on the forums.

magnum1587246490 Posted November 23, 2001 Share Posted November 23, 2001 I have thought about a mixture between the ideas already posted: The idea is to put our names in a secret area, or/and recognize us in games: To get the forum's regulars the only thing that The Council people should do is (assuming that ubb uses a sql database) something like this: SELECT nick, email FROM users WHERE posts > 5 AND date < XX/XX/XXXX That way they'll get the wanted names to send to Raven / LEC. Then Raven / LEC should put harcoded in the game a special code (other than the game registration key), that will be mailed only to us, or put back in our personal data in the forums. In multiplayer mode, after we input the code, a special overlay text (I think that is better than a skin that can be copied, anyway) will appear whenever one of us logs in a game. Can say the Member number, or whatever we please. Example "The Proud JKII.net member #66 is here!" What do you people think? EDIT: spelling...

Nemios Posted November 23, 2001 Share Posted November 23, 2001 I agree with the fact that there are many old members that post not so much. For example I was a lurker for a long time for many reasons since OBK.net (Galactic Plumberman? LOL! Finally that was a charachter from Racer2 but we didn't know. And Jar Jar Alphabet? Hehehe). Sure I would be excited to see my name in the game but it is not in the spirit of a community. I still think that a default-skin-replacer activable by command line is still the best idea. It can be copied and extracted, but this is not important. The important thing is that it is there, sold with the game, to thank us all. Who would play with such a skin other than the real members of this community anyway? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cossack1812 Posted November 23, 2001 Share Posted November 23, 2001 How bout just a skin that has JediKnightII.net written on it Or NPCs that walk by and when you bump into them, say "have you been to the JKO forums lately?" Or just some really really stunning shots showing of the various locations we can go to. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lord_FinnSon Posted November 24, 2001 Share Posted November 24, 2001 I think that simple text like "Thanks to all of you wonderful forum members at JediKnightII.net! May the Force be with you!" during End Credits is still the biggest and most memorable gift we can get...

Zekk Dawkins Posted November 25, 2001 Share Posted November 25, 2001 One belives the idea of a line on the back of his shirt is cool, but the line in the credits would be noticed more than if it was a members only thing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

StormHammer Posted November 26, 2001 Share Posted November 26, 2001 Yeah, Gonk, maybe that was a bit harsh. Although LEC did decide to get Raven on board for JK2, and Bioware for KotOR. It depends on whether they have a team geared up for an FPS... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
